Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's December again, there's a chill in the air
I should be out with friends, but I'm askin' myself
Tell me, what does Christmas mean without you? All right
[Verse 2]
Kids are making the lists
I hear laughter in the distance
And I must admit only one thing is missin'
Tell me, what does Christmas mean without you? All right
Without you, all right
[Verse 3]
I know you can't be here this year
But understand, when you're gone, I feel dodgy
And in my heart I need to know
If Santa will bring you home
[Verse 4]
There'll be snow on the ground, there'll be lights in the trees
There'll be love all around, but if you're not with me
Tell me, what does Christmas mean?
Tell me, what does Christmas mean? Yeah
Tell me, what does Christmas mean without you? All right
Without you, all right, sing
[Verse 5]
I know you can't be here this year
But understand, when you're gone I feel dodgy
And in my heart I need to know
If Santa will bring you home
[Verse 6]
There'll be snow on the ground (On the ground)
There'll be lights in the trees (Ooh, ooh)
There'll be love all around (All around)
But if you're not with me (Tell me)
Tell me, what does Christmas mean? (What does it mean, yeah)
Tell me, what, oh what does it really mean?
Tell me, what does Christmas mean without you?
[Verse 7]
Without you, yeah, without you, all right
Whoa, whoa, whoa (Whoa, whoa, whoa, all right)
Without you, yeah
Whoa, whoa, all right (Whoa, whoa, whoa, all right)
Come on, take it away (Hey, what does it mean without you?)
(What does it mean, what does it mean?) Come on, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Hey, what does it mean without you?) Come on
(What does it mean?) What does it mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah
(What does it mean?) Oh, come on, now
